Award-winning photographer and visual creative based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

I’ve been taking photos as long as I can remember, as cheesy as that sounds but have been pursuing photography profressionally since since 2019. During my time studying at the University of St Andrews for a History Bachelor’s and History of Photoraphy Master’s I was running Lightbox, a student-run photography agency and developed my professional photography skills alongside my academic work. Since 2019, I’ve been published in magazines and editorial pieces including the Saint and UNA and have been commissioned for work on behalf of the University of St Andrews, as well as a range of student organisations, events, and independent projects.

Other than photography you can find me at the gym doing Olympic Weightlifting , cooking up a storm in my kitchen or finding the next best Asian spot near me. I was born and raised in Hong Kong and went to school in Malaysia so anything to do with Asia has a special place in my heart and I try to go back when I can.

I live and work in Edinburgh but take my camera with me wherever I go.

I’d love to hear from you.
